Game thread RU vs Nebraska 2/7/21

22-10, RU up end of 1st. Looking very good. Martino in. Diamond is just so smooth, especially as a frosh. She and Tekia have 7 each.
 
43-31 RU up at half. Feels like we should be up by 20. Arella still looks out of synch with her offense.
 
Anyone know what the T was for?
Did Mack say something?

This team would be scary good if they had an offensive threat at center.

I think Sakima Walker is going to be a scary good center. She hasn't played today, not sure why. Anybody else know why she isn't playing?
 
59-49 end of 3rd. Not good blowing the big lead, and letting this team hang around.
 
75-62...59 seconds left

maybe we shouldnt practice

congrats ladies on a win after such a tough go. Showing some real grit and determination and bravery during tough times

Solid contributions from every one.
Wish Singleton would look to score when she has the ball 1 foot from the basket.

So many positives to say. Huge win with so many players out. Tekia was just a warrior out there, 26 pts, and played all 40 minutes. Her defense was superb as well Arella is still a concern with her shooting way off. Was 5-21 today, ouch.
Diamond, looks like a Cappie/Matee/Tasha guard. She is just so smooth as a frosh. Many more positives, just look at the box.

Pretty amazing performance given the layoff; and quite fascinating to have our last game and first game back be against the same team in Nebraska. To score 78pts, shoot 49% from the field, 40% from 3-pt, and have only 10 turnovers after the team's layoff is impressive.

T-Baby was spectacular today, maybe her best offensive performance ever as a Scarlet Knight, plus her usual tenacious defense.

Diamond is just so smooth, so in control for a freshman. When she shoots I expect it to go in.

Singleton should look to score more but man was she a beast on the boards today--11 rebounds going up against some real bigs for Nebraska.

I'm just going to assume Arella can't shoot against Nebraska but can shoot against (literally) everyone else. Even with 5-21 from the field, she didn't seem like she was forcing much, was playing within the offense, and had 6 assists to just one turnover.

Mael had a quieter stat sheet but was instrumental in everything the team does, particularly on defense. She is a GLUE player.

Disappointing that Zippy is still injured, hope we can get an update. She was having a great season before injury. Hope CVS can have a bit more confidence in bench, though given the layoff, understand her going with the starters.

Just did some quick math, and Arella is shooting 17.7% from the field in her two games against Nebraska, and 45% from the field versus everyone else.

Hoping this is just a bizarre one team aberration!
 
In the post game press conference Coach Stringer said zippy could be returning to practice tomorrow
I thought she said Sakima Walker was returning tomorrow. (Just listened again and she did say Sakima ).
